How did you go about drilling out the inset for them? Did you make your own template? (sorry I'm a DIY'er so i have to ask)

It comes with a template, but I would suggest buying the jig and using a router you want it done quick and perfect.

The template SOSS makes is the thing to use. A bit of cash, but tuned for the job. I'm using 208s and they sit close to the edge.

Some people use a drill bit and some use a router. Soss also makes a template.

I had no instructions. I uses some scrap wood and adjusted the drill setting until I had what I wanted. You may be able to find some information from the manufacturer on line.

Very easily in my case. I used a hammer drill and quality masonry bit. Took approximately 10 mins.

I made a template or 'jig' using the measurements on the page included with the product. Since I had 9 to install and all drawers were the same depth in cabinets from the same manufacturer, I thought it easier to make a template so I could just mark the holes for drilling rather than try to measure each location. The template works great. I slide it up under the existing rail and mark the three holes to be drilled. I made the template in duplicate i.e. one for left, one for right side. I'd send a picture, but this website doesn't appear to allow an attachment.

There are no instructions. I was frustrated with it too!! Just try to attach it the best you can. They don't fit perfectly.

You do have to drill through the plates... It requires a diamond drill bit, hard work and water to keep them cool during drilling. I was going to do these for craft fairs. It took about 20 minutes for 1 plate. My husband is very strong and had a little drill press to put on the plates to keep it centered. This requires much pressure and accuracy or plates won't look right on the stems. The washer go on top and the bottom of each plate and are secured by the twisty part of holder. I did make some and they were beautiful! I gave them with gifts of cupcakes and scones. Good luck... SZQ

Yes, use a piece of cardboard to make template first, line up holes drill and use zip ties to attach.

I actually did it myself with simple tools. It was a pretty easy job. YouTube has several good videos that are easy to follow. Hope this helps.

I bought an approx. 1" x 8" scrap piece of board that I picked up at Menard's for less than $1 and cut to fit the underneath side of the mail box with a jig saw, then marked the board where the screws would go in, and drilled pilot holes where these were marked. Then, I screwed this homemade platform on to the existing 6 x 6 square wooden post, placed mailbox onto the platform and lined up the mail box holes with the pilot holes and drilled in the screws. I'm sorry I cannot remember the exact dimensions of the underneath side of the mailbox, else would have included them. I'm not sure what you would do if you have a steel round post. You would some way of attaching the platform.

It was a bit confusing. Mine didn't have any actual directions either, just a piece of paper with pictures of how to do it. I had to look at the photo and go off that. First start off by making a squared "U", that will be the sides and back. Then add on the bottom and next two shelves, I believe it was a matter of sliding the little legs over the bar. Then the bars that actually separate the can rows should be added last, by sliding the curved end over the back side of one of the poles. I didn't need any tools. Sorry I can't be of more help.

I used a 3/8" bit for the through holes in the beam. The bolts are 3/8" so you have to tap them through with a hammer. I recommend that you use a drill with a built in bubble level in order to get a straight hole. That's a pretty long hole to drill by eye. Also you may have to do a lot of sanding on the 4x4's and 4x6 in order to get them into the brackets. Lumber dimensions vary even within each piece. I uses a 5" orbital sander and it still took a while. Good luck!

I can't remember if it came with template. I did it by hand and got it to fit after some forcing.

I would suggest using the plastic bottom piece. Or, use that plastic piece to trace your own mounting template. My purchase was to replace a broken clogged faucet; so, my three holes were already drilled.
